About ISM
The International
Solidarity Movement (ISM) is a Palestinian-led movement
committed to resisting the Israeli occupation in Palestine
by using nonviolent, direct-action methods and principles.
Founded by a small group of primarily Palestinian and
Israeli activists in August 2001, ISM aims to support and
strengthen the Palestinian popular resistance by providing
the Palestinian people with two resources, international
solidarity and an international voice.
For detailed information on ISM please visit www.palsolidarity.org
Interning / volunteering with ISM
You will be based in the West Bank,
experienced and interested activists may be placed in Gaza.
Apart from gaining reporting and photography experience, you
will also be networking with existing media outlets and
develop skills during media meetings on reporting the
occupation of Palestine. ISM is seeking a minimum 3 month
commitment, and will provide accommodation during your stay.
ISM is a non-hierarchical solidarity movement.
Consequently, you will not be treated as a classical intern
but rather as a fellow voluntary member of the activist
group.
Fields of work
- Learn to humanize the voice
of the struggle by reporting on events ranging from
anti-occupation demonstrations to house raising demolitions.
- Establish contacts with local Palestinian and
international media
- Help refining the ISM media
strategy by developing and incorporating own ideas on
information spreading techniques

The voice is the movement. Let it be heard.
We wish you the best of luck and hope to see you reporting in Palestine.
